Hello lovelies,

I've found an almost year old tutorial I've done and I think it would be a shame not to share it with you since it's already 'ready to go'. It's not as good quality as my recent tutorials but I hope you'll still like it.

Back in early 2013 I've been practising some basic one stroke design and watching YouTube tutorials and these simple three-petal one stroke flowers were the result...

White acrylic paint
Seche Vite top coat

Half-pearl decorations from Born Pretty store (10% discount code LUHH10)

 

And here's the promised tutorial:

 

 


I hope you'll excuse the lower quality of the video and still enjoy it :) Stay tuned for a giveaway and sneak peek at the new Illamasqua collection!

Hello lovelies,

 

In response to THIS post I've decided to recreate my dotted swirls design with tutorial and also in Valentine's Day colours! This post is also part of a Bestie Twin Nails I'm doing with Antonia from @nailsandpolkadots on Instagram. So check her out, she's a budding and talented nail artist!

For this manicure I've used three OPI polishes - Alpine Snow, Big Apple Red and If You Moust You Moust; then of course base coat (Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu! Base coat) and topcoat (Seche Vite Topcoat). It is best to use dotting tool to achieve the same sized-dots but if you don't have dotting tools, a bobby pin with rounded end or a pin stuck in a pencil will work too.

 

I've prepared a video tutorial where I share some tips and tricks to the perfect and uniform swirls so hope you'll like it...if you do, please don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel ;)

 

 

So that's it, hope you like the manicure and find it easy to do. If you recreate please tag me and add #lucysstash, I'd really love to see your manicures :)

 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x
